Got it sorted and thanks for all of your help.
Micro HDMI to HDMI and all backed up now.
Kids - who'd have them.
Got the laptop from John Lewis. They were the same price as everywhere else and offered a free 3 year warranty and for £40 extra included accidental damage. Knowing how clumsy he is, it was money well spent!
I have swapped out a screen before on a Toshiba laptop from about 2012 when he stepped on it!!! They were much easier to get in to then these modern all sealed units.
I recall Toshiba wanted something like £300 to fix it and the local shop £200. Ebay sold the LCD panel for £30 odd and a 20 minute job that took me 3 hours saw it sorted. I also think the replacement screen was brighter and had a wider field of view.
